You may not beleive this, but try it with the file extension in capital letters..... JPG I think I had the same problem in the past.

aha, cheers, Clee virgins no longer needed :)
As teh fiel name had spaces in it then the d/w gets confused, replacing them iwth 20% as in your versions and it looks as if it's fine.
My last post didnt' have spaces in it so worked first time.
( Thats worth a complaint to the forum s/w supplier, that's a noob mistake on filename parsing :D )

Chris Harablek, an Austrian lives in London, and runs a design company, ...... the first race spider converted to road use..... then rupert's came along......

he was at WSR Le mans last year.... I spoke with him shortly until his told me he'd paid £25,000 for it. :shock: ....... then i had to be revived after fainting in shock :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

respect to him though...... he's in the position he has more money than sense 8)

Chris Hrablek is the guy behind the updated LAncia Stratos car at the motorshows.
He phoned me about buying my car recently but he never managed to come and see it before I moved down to the SW.
Have to say it looks cool with no roll cage, might have to get my spanner out!

does look cool without the cage 8) ...... but no cage less rigidity for handling round the circuit, :? the tub does move on the road car under stress hence the paint having gracks in it in certain places :cry:

Having watched a car with no rollover bar flip onto its roof during the Blue Hills trial on Easter Saturday, I think I would rather have the bar than look cool with a neck collar to match. :(
Driving an A610 is just so sublime.
